My Voyages Through the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand
My Voyages through the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand By Geoff Walker The Andaman Sea is renowned for its stunning sunsets, beauty, and recently permitted eco-tourism. The Andaman and Nicobar Group consist of a group of about 570 islands that run virtually north and south, of which 38 are inhabited, situated at the juncture of the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea. This chain of islands serves as the boundary between the Bay of Bengal to the west, and the Andaman Sea to the east. The territory is about 93 miles north of Aceh, the northern tip of Sumatra, in Indonesia and separated from Thailand and Myanmar by the exotic Andaman Sea. Most of the islands are part of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, politically administered by India, the archipelago Islands became part of India in 1950 and was declared as a union territory of the nation in 1956 and is now known as the Union Territory of India. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands (which form the southern section of the archipelago) are separated by a broad channel, known as the Ten Degree Channel. The waters and Islands of the Andaman and Nicobar group are pristine and a tourist’s paradise in every stretch of the imagination and must surely, be classified as a boutique destination for any visitor. The Andaman Sea, particularly the western coast of the Malay and Thailand Peninsula, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India and Myanmar are rich in coral reefs and offshore islands with spectacular topography. The climate is typical of tropical islands of similar latitude. -

Not for Quote the OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE AS
Preliminary Draft: not for Quote THE OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE AS A CATALYST OF FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT AND INDUSTRIAL AGGLOMERATION Matsuo WATANABE Japan Institute of International Affairs 1. INTRODUCTION This chapter is intended to investigate the contribution of infrastructure development financed by official development assistance (ODA) to attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) and formation of industrial agglomeration with reference to the automotive industry in Thailand. Thailand has been one of the major production bases in the ASEAN, and currently there are 700 automotive-related companies. The origin of the industry in Thailand dates back to the 1960s when the country invited foreign manufacturers, mainly Japanese, under the import substitution industrialisation (ISI) strategy. The country subsequently changed to an export-oriented strategy in the beginning of the 1970s afterwards which has led to the remarkable success of industrialisation (including automotive sector) and economic development. The success of Thai automotive industry is represented by the expansion of volume of production and export which has been the largest among ASEAN members. This expansion is enabled by a concentration of investments in the industry (known as ‘agglomeration’), among others, from foreign part suppliers in the Eastern Seaboard (ESB) area. The determinants of FDI have been analysed in number of past literature including FDI to the ASEAN economies in which provision of infrastructure as well as existence of industrial agglomeration have positive impacts on attracting FDI1. 1 For example, Kohama and Urata (2001) stress the importance of host countries’ condition in 1 This study investigates how the agglomeration of automotive industry has taken place in Thailand. -

Identification of Road Accident Recurrence in Sri Racha District, Chon Buri Province
The 40th Asian Conference on Remote Sensing (ACRS 2019) October 14-18, 2019 / Daejeon Convention Center(DCC), Daejeon, Korea TuF3-3 IDENTIFICATION OF ROAD ACCIDENT RECURRENCE IN SRI RACHA DISTRICT, CHON BURI PROVINCE Narong Pleerux, Attawut Nardkulpat Burupha University, Saensuk, Mueang, Chon Buri, 20131, Thailand Email: [email protected], [email protected] KEY WORDS: Road accident hot spot, Spatial distribution, Spatial statistic, Getis-Ord Gi*, GIS ABSTRACT: Road accidents are one of the important problems in Thailand and they cause economic losses to victims, their families, and the nation. Understanding the road accident hot spots is essential to reduce high density areas of accidents. Sri Racha district, Chon Buri province was selected as the study area. Road accident data during 2012 – 2017 from the Road Accident Data Center (ThaiRSC) were used to complete the aims of study. Spatial statistical method, Getis-Ord Gi* in Geographic Information System (GIS), was applied to identify hot spot and distribution of road accidents in Sri Racha. The finding showed 458 grid cells with six consecutive years of road accident occurrence. The maximum number of road accidents, 17, were observed at the intersection along highway No. 3 )Sukhumvit Road(. The results can be used by several agencies for planning and managing strategies for road accident reduction. Further, GIS and spatial statistical methods are effective tools which are quite widely used for accident analysis. 1. INTRODUCTION Road transportation is very important, but it causes the highest accidents compared to other modes of transportation (Dereli and Erdogan, 2017). The impact of road accidents is injuries and fatalities (Anderson, 2009). -
